Another morning that started with breakfast on the balcony. I’m really enjoying having a Central Park balcony. I chose it because I could see my son climbing on a table for a closer look of the ocean, and felt this was a better option for him. A nice surprise is that the Central Park balconiesContinue reading “Sea Day on Harmony of the Seas”

Perfect Day at CocoCay
My son is absolutely loving ship life, but by the end of the night he is overly tired from the amount of stimulation. The good news is he sleeps really well, but the bad news is we haven’t made it through a show. One way I thought to ease the stimulation is to eat breakfastContinue reading “Perfect Day at CocoCay”
Nassau, Bahamas
We began our morning at the WindJammer for a buffet breakfast. It was packed and there was a little line to enter. We washed our hands and then found a table. There was a fruit/yogurt bar and also an area with traditional American breakfast food such as bacon, sausage, waffles, eggs, and pancakes. My favoriteContinue reading “Nassau, Bahamas”
Boarding Harmony of the Seas
Last night I was given options for our shuttle time to the ship. We could either choose the 11:14am shuttle and arrive early or the 12:15pm shuttle and arrive fashionably late. We had a 12:30pm boarding time so I chose the 11:15am shuttle. The shuttle arrived at 11:20am and was packed. It was a shortContinue reading “Boarding Harmony of the Seas”
Getting to Port Canaveral
My parents and my son are about to experience their first cruise! We started our day at 3am for our 6am flight to Orlando. As we packed the car, I became a little unsure about how our stuff would fit in our mid-size SUV rental car in Florida. We had three large suitcases and aContinue reading “Getting to Port Canaveral”
Disney Springs {Day 6}
Today is the last day of the trip. I booked my flight in December during a Frontier Airlines sale and there were three options for a direct flight. The first was too early to work with a cruise, the second was a decent time but significantly more than the third option, and the third optionContinue reading “Disney Springs {Day 6}”
Castaway Cay {Day 5}
Too many of our mornings started early so today we were on Bahamian time. Our only time constraint was that breakfast ended at 10:30am. Breakfast was at Cabanas, the buffet. I had a ham and cheese croissant, French toast, and bacon. Cabanas is fabulous. Castaway Cay is Disney’s private island. The water surrounding the shipContinue reading “Castaway Cay {Day 5}”
Chocolatiers in Bahamas {Day 4}
We started the morning at Royal Palace where our servers were expecting us. Last night, I ordered my meals for the day so that the necessary precautions could be taken to make sure my meal avoided my allergens. The first course was a colorful plate with mango, strawberry, raspberry, cantelope, and blueberries. For my mainContinue reading “Chocolatiers in Bahamas {Day 4}”
Embark on Disney Dream {Day 3}
The transition between Disney Parks and Disney Cruise Line isn’t as seamless as I expected. We were staying at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge and I booked a Disney transfer to take us from the hotel to the port. I had called a week before our trip to find out what time the transfer would pick usContinue reading “Embark on Disney Dream {Day 3}”
Miami & Travel Home {Day 9}
We fly direct whenever you can. Partly because we don’t like wasting our time connecting if we can avoid it and also because a direct flight minimizes the number of people around you who could be sick. There aren’t a lot of direct flight from Miami to Cleveland so our direct flight wasn’t until afterContinue reading “Miami & Travel Home {Day 9}”
